Virtual box error running hardware 3d acceleration
If you know the video card installed on your computer has the latest driver installed then maybe the video card installed on the guest operating system has not been updated that’s why the guest addition doesn’t match with the host. To fix the problem, download the latest driver for your video card. Start VirtualBox then launch your guest operating system.
Run the installer in the guest operating system to update the video card driver to the latest version. See if this fixes the problem. To properly install and maintain your guest additions, since you did not mention your guest operating system, please refer to VirtualBox Guest Additions. It is also possible that the main cause of this error is your enabling of the 3D support of VirtualBox.
The reason is that the 3D acceleration feature of VirtualBox is still under experimental and is disabled by default. So, that means, if 3D acceleration is enabled in your guest operating system then you must have enabled it. Try disabling it again and it should fix the problem.
